It's time to resolve the debt ceiling
The Gazette Opinion Staff

To our congressional representatives:
As we approach another debt ceiling situation, I hope that you listen to your constituents. It is time to resolve the debt ceiling without pushing it to the limit. The last time, the Republican-controlled House cost us millions of dollars in interest as our credit rating was dropped after the House refused to raise the debt ceiling until the last minute.
Please do not put your citizens through this again. It is time to resolve these issues in a timely fashion for the good of our people, country, and states.
